I'm about the same age as you and your childhood sounds exactly like mine. Ivplayed with dolls and did ballet and then all of a sudden sixteen years later I was a martial artist and one of three women my belt level in my studio. If you teach a child to be strong and to seek her own interests regardless of societal…

Jesus Christ, this is a shitshow of an article. And it could've been done so well, too.

Sorry but if this is all you found your research was lazy and half assed. I found several Leia dolls with out the slave costume both in stores (Wal-Mart, Target and Toys are us) and a slew online as well. Stick to the actual sexist toys and for the love of god get your god damn facts straight.

these took a 5 second…

I miss the old Polly Pocket. There was no dress up, just choking hazards.

You DO know that Leia kills Jabba while in that getup, right? Giant green beast? Have you ever fucking watched Star Wars?

Oh everyone, just stop.

To be fair, I'd rather swiffer 10 houses over doing the laundry. I LOATHE the laundry.

Hallelujah. I'm waiting for the first school to be hit with massive fines. That is when change will occur in terms of how colleges and universities respond to the rapes of their students.

This project could have been AMAZING. The shoes are really cool, and I don't at all mind the concept, actually. The accompanying stories, however, are insufferable. This guy has the emotional maturity and intellectual prowess of a freshman philosophy major who insists his teachers all give him Cs because they're…

The stories are horribly written and I don't doubt this guy is a self-pitying douche, but am I the only one who thinks that the shoes objectively are kind of interesting and it's kind of a cool idea? *runs*

So the rhythm method. Enjoy your eventual unintended pregnancy.

The elderly couple are clearly awesome, wonderful people.

I can't tell if he is gay or not. No matter, I want to marry him.

You know as someone who has been called nasty names like kike and been asked before "what kind of people make the best fire wood???" before you would think I'd be used to the hate, but nope, this is something that should never be something someone is "used too". Anti-semitism is still incredibly strong in our society…

Makes sense. I recently found out I'm pregnant and really wish it had happened about a month earlier so I could get the news out of the way in one fell swoop at the family Christmas. But noooo. I'm all worried something will happen before the first trimester's over. So I'll just sit in silence and make a million phone…

You are assuming a lot aren't you? Maybe she just wasn't in the mood for all the OMG's!

OH DANIEL CRAIG!!! YOU ARE NOT ANYONE'S BOYFRIEND. YOU ARE THE GOD I WORSHIP NOW AND ALWAYS.

OMG you guise this Sound of Music Live sketch is already better than the ACTUAL Sound of Music Live. Kristen Wiig FOREVER.

Everybody makes a fuss about Cameron Diaz because nobody can touch Carol Burnett. Let me ask you this: who can touch Ann Reinking?

Dunno if it's worth noting, but there is no "Daddy Warbucks" in the upcoming film. His name has been changed to Benjamin Stacks. I am hoping they drop the "Daddy" moniker entirely, Daddy Stacks sounds weird.
